So there's a famous Lowrider from the 90s called Las Vegas.  Its a 1979 Lincoln Mark 5.

I wanted to recreate that in 1/64 scale.  So all these photos are in order of what I've done to it. And where I'm at now. Working on the interior now. 

There about 20 layers of paint on this car so fare and there still might be more thats added.

Who made the original diecast model?  It is so finely made that  it looks like a larger scale model (not a Hot Wheels or Matchbox size model).

Got some interior done. Just some mockup colors for now.

Still only about 70% finished.  So alot to do.

Wow!

That's a lot of art on such a small canvass! 

You've really captured the feel of it so far, nice work.

Yes, that is a complex paint job on a model that is probably less than 3" long!
